summaryWe consider a model of (biological) neurons in interaction. Each neuron is characterized by its membrane potential, assumed to be of ``Integrate-And-Fire’’ type : between two successive spikes, the membrane potential (V_t) solves an ODE. The neuron spikes at rate f(V_t) (it only depends on the membrane potential of this neuron). At the spiking time, the membrane potential is reset to a resting value. At this same time, the discharge is propagated to the other neurons of the network through a jump in the membrane potential. Altogether the finite system with N neurons is a Piecewise Deterministic Markov Process. We are interested here in the asymptotic behavior as the number of neurons goes to infinity : a typical neuron in the limit system follows a McKean-Vlasov SDE. We study it (existence/uniqueness and invariant distributions). Furthermore, we prove that the local stability of a given invariant distribution can be characterized through the location of the roots of an explicit holomorphic function. We finally discuss the existence of periodic solutions through a Hopf bifurction. An important tool is the Volterra integral equation associated to the process.
